The Beers murder trial was attentively
watched yesterday by II large audience that
sought immunity from the storm without in
the district court room. The defense occu-
pied the time until along in the afternoon.
The case made by the prosecution was clear
and concise, rs the evidence was of direct
and positive character. The defense con-
fined itself to two theorics-the sympathy to
to be made in the case through II showing of
the relations existing between the murderer
and the murdered prior to their coming TO
America and the insanity plea that in itself
could not evidently be made very telling,
The facts showed in the first of the above
mentioned was that Beers lived at the home
of the girl prior to their coming to America;
that when the family determined to cross the
ocean the young lady insisted strenuously
that Beers should accompany them, and that
he did so, going further and advancing $50 to
help dcfray the expenses across the water.
The further showing was made that the
young man was practically cast off of late
and that the trouble preyed upon him. Mr..
Louie Meyer was put upon the stand to des-
cribe the conversation between Beers
and himself shortly after the
murder. Prior to this it
was entered in evidence that Beers had been

They All Read the "Bee."

In conversation with Superintendent
James of the public schools, with reference
to the great benefits accruing to scholars out
of the circulating school library just inau-
gurated, he related a little incident that fur
nished happy illustration of the popularity
of the BEE. In discussing the facilities of
scholars for obtaining sufficient mertorious
reading matter in one of the public school
rooms Friday morning, he inquired of them if
they read the daily papers. They did.
Then he said; How many of you read
the Herald. You that do hold up your
hands"
One solitary hand went up.
"How many of you read the Republican,
the World and the News!n
Seven little hands went heavenward.
'How many of you read the BEE!'
Almost every hand in the room was held
aloft. This is certainly an excellent recon-
mendaton for the BEE as IA popular family
journal.

Farnam Schools THANKSGIVING.

Farnam Schools Thanksgiving.
Wednesday afternoon was an occasion of
joyful import to the pupils of Sixth grade,
Farnam school. The little folks had pre-
pared Thanksgiving programme for the day,
and merry looks and joyous voices greeted
the throng of smiling visitors who honored
them with their presence. The children were
in holiday attire and booming with health
and happiness. There were speeches and
rectatOns, and a debate between two tiny
youngsters as to the relative merits of
Thanksgiving Day and Fourth of July as
boys holiday, and one appreciating little chap
with dimple in mis- cheek, "broke out into
poetry in this wise, concerning the Farnam
girls:
Oh the Farnam girls are the girls for mel
So merry, wise and witty;
And we'll give YOU leave to say we're wrong,
If you'll watch 'em in this city.
You may boast, if you please, of the Central
girls
The Park street girls, and the rest. sir;
But we'll stand up for the Farnam girls
AS the prcttiest and the best, sir.
OH if ! were a lord of the British Isles,
A marquis, a duke, or an carl,
I'd cross the seas to find me bride,
And I'd pick out Farnam girl
oh those cute little Farnam girls!
Those dear little Farnam girls!
BY lingo, Just wait till I'm twenty-one
And I'll marry a Farnam girl.
Franklin Rose, the president of the society,
was the pride of his teachers heart on this
occasion and performed his duties in Il way
that would put to shame many IN older in
cumbent Of the Speakers chair. Tho little
misscs-Flora Day and Susie Colpetzcr-
were very sweet and graceful upon the stage,
and Gcorgie EaSsOn'S composition, sour
Visitors" and Master George Purvis'
''Turkey's Diary abounded in sly fun ana
boyish jokes on the teacher, who was as
merry as grig and enjoyed the fun more
than anybody.
Eddie SWANS speech, '"rhose Plaguey
Rules" was received with thunders of APP
plausc from the delighted boys who enjoyed
as only boys can, the sly hits at the teachers
and superintendent and their fondncss for
making rules.
Miss Alice Parrot and Miss Mamie Briggs
told the audience in strictest confidence
whom they meant to marry and Louise
Whitman rccitcd Whitticr's ballad, Mary
Garvin," in IA sweet, clear voice.
At the close Of the exercises the Rev. Mr..
Maile made some very pleasant remarks TO
the children which they will long remember
for their simplicity and beauty.
MIR. j. II. PicrsOn also spoke to the chill
drcn, and in few pleasant words told them
that in their conduct of their little society
they were getting brief glimpse of the way
the real affairs of the world are conducted.
The children were also greatly fattered and
pleased to sec the genial, pleasant face of
Superintendent James among the visitors,
though as usual he managed to make his
escape just as the speech making began.
At these public or reception days" as
| they are called in Farnam school, it is each
child's pride and ambition TO number parent
or friend among the guests, and on this occa
sion there were between forty and fifty visi
tors present
